Saturday that was the plan for the day. I woke up just excited for the day ahead of me. I started it out with mowing the lawn for hopefully the final time this year. Unfortunately I filled my hole I dug just the other day. Time to dig a new one. After finishing up with the lawn, and a quick shower, I moved to washing the motorcycle. I took some time, and detailed it good. Then Lacey arrived. :)

Lacey hadn't been able to go check out the changing leaves, and our previous plans were canceled. With the temperature at a decent level for mid October, we couldn't pass it up. We got on the bike and rode down to Eric & Natalie's house for them to ride with us. From there we rode up Big Cottonwood Canyon. There were TONS of colors at the bottom, but as we got to the top just bare quakies and pine trees. But we got up to the top where we parked the bikes. We took a nice stroll around Silver Lake chatting along the way. Then back down. That was the coldest part.

We made our way down and headed along Wasatch to 94th, then down to Starbucks on Highland. Lacey and I both tried the White Chocolate Hot Cocoa, which was very good. We did some more chatting, and decided rather than going up Little Cottonwood and getting cold again, we decided to ride up and over South Mountain. So we headed down 13th East and past the Draper Temple on our way up the mountain. I've gotta say you have some AWESOME views on that road. So up and over we went. Eric & Natalie had to get back so they took off while Lacey and I stopped by Cabela's. I need to get a hoodie so she can "share" it with me. We walked around, no good hoodies. :( Kept walking around looking at everything. Overall I think I expected more. Oh well. All the rubs and seasonings near the camping section looked good.

After Cabela's we rode back up to my place where we lost some layers, got in my car and drove down to Mimi's Cafe, Laceys favorite. She ordered her fav, Chicken & Fruit, while I went for the Chicken Cordon Blu. I really liked mine, although it was hard to eat. They had Chicken Gumbo for the soup of the day, which turned out pretty good.

Then it was back to my place for the cuddlin' part of the day. &#59;) As soon as we got back we began the embarrassing part... Old Pictures! So we looked though mine first... she saw how cute I was as a baby, and even saw me naked! :O Then we looked though her pictures where I saw ____________. After looking through each others photos we went downstairs where she crashed. We spent the rest of the night just cuddling and talking.

It was a great day.

We went up to Silver Lake over conference weekend and it was beautiful & cold! Sorry you missed it (the beauty, not the cold).
